Damn you, Cliff Richard! DAMN YOU!!!!!!!!!!
It's been about ten days since we were in Paris, but that song continues to haunt me. Why? Because a poster advertising an upcoming Cliff Richard concert in Paris was plastered on the wall everywhere we looked in the Métro.
I began humming his 70s (only American?) hit, and I still can't get the stupid song out of my head. You know the one:
It's so funny how we don't talk anymore.
It's so funny why we don't talk anymore.
But I ain't losing sleep and I ain't counting sheep.
It's so funny how we don't talk anymore.
It's so funny? No, it's not!
P.S. PLEASE NOTE: Obligatory Eiffel Tower pictures...

You mean "Wired for Sound" didn't make it Stateside? For shame!
I'm sorry, but...are you wearing a *beret* in that photo?!
ms mac - I just checked Wikipedia and "Wired For Sound" made it to #71 in the U.S. charts. It's amazing how many hits he had in the U.K., and how few he had in the U.S. I guess he's kind of the Robbie Williams of his day in that respect.
sal - Why yes, I am wearing a beret. As a matter of fact, I own two. I wore the black one in Paris, and I was wearing the blue one in the picture from Geneva.
Ok, but you might want to consider buying a green one. You know...just to mess with people's heads.
I have been singing it in my head (I hope) as Mrs. Miller ever since you wrote this...
"Jack,it's so funny how we don't go to New Dawn concerts anymore"
For some reason, I am not able to post using my google beta account on your blog. I do not have this on any other site?
Sal - I don't know if green is my color. Plus, my head is so damn big that somebody my confuse it for a putting green.
TMS - So, how then are you posting comments now. And...WILL SOMEBODY PLEASE TELL ME WHAT IS THE BENEFIT OF THIS GOOGLE BETA THING? What is it? I just use the old fashioned version, and I don't understand what the reason is for switching. Haven't people had problems with it? Why should I switch? Somebody...anybody...please tell me. I've asked several times. Is there anybody out there?
TBF- For one, try an orange Beret. Orange suits you (and the Missus) very well) then go to Amsterdam with it.
As for Beta, I ain't changing either before they get it fixed. A lot of bugs, I hear.
There really is no advantage to Beta. I have a gmail account thru google so it kind of tricked me into switching.
I am posting now (you will notice sans my photo) by choosing the identity of Other. Then I type my screen name and my blogspot address.
Rather of a pain in the arse but oh well.
"Oh Jack, it's so GD funny how we don't go to WHS anymore!"
I hear they have ice skating on the first level of the Eiffel Tower if you want another excuse to go back to Paris soon...
